Extrasolar planets are outside our solar system. Astronomers guessed that theywere in outer space, but it wasnt until the 1990s that astronomers first found evidence that they existed.So far more than 500 of them have been discovered. This book explores hot Jupiters and super-Earths and describes how extrasolar planet hunters find these faraway worlds.
